Business
SRQ DAILY FRIDAY WEEKEND EDITION
FRIDAY MAY 12, 2017 |
Ashley Brown, president and CEO of the Women’s Resource Center, recognized three 2017 Wonder Women at the organization’s annual Founders’ Legacy Luncheon, celebrating them as women leaders who have made outstanding contributions in volunteer and/or professional activities in the areas of business, community leadership, education, healthcare, entrepreneurship or lifetime achievement. This year’s Wonder Women are Susie Bowie, executive director of the Manatee Community Foundation; Dr. Jan Pullen, head of school at Saint Stephen’s Episcopal School; and Amanda Horne, co-owner of the Anna Maria Oyster Bar. Horne has volunteered and served on committees for hundreds of charitable events over the years, including Planned Parenthood, USF, PACE Center for Girls, and the Manatee Community Foundation, while Pullen was recognized for the strides made in both the upper and middle schools as Saint Stephens, in terms of education, modernization and athletics. Bowie received the distinction thanks to her strengthening the foundation’s relationship with the community and her innovative fundraising. The event also paid tribute to the organization’s founder Jan Entwistle who died in October.
